| Obverse description | The obverse features the large numeral denomination '100' prominently in the left-center field, with the word 'PESETAS' inscribed below it. To the right, a colorized spray of three Micronesian tropical flowers rendered in white and yellow enamel occupies the right portion of the field. The legend 'ISLA PESCADORES' arcs along the upper rim, while 'KAPINGAMARANGI ISLAND' curves along the lower rim, both in raised Latin lettering. The overall field has a brushed, matte finish characteristic of the medal-style production. |
